Can Speeding Violations Be Checked on the Same Day?
4 Answers
Vehicle violations cannot be checked on the same day; it usually takes 3-7 days to be visible, with a maximum of 15 days. Penalty Standards for Speeding Violations: According to the new regulations on speeding penalties on highways, there are four types of penalties for speeding by small and large vehicles: warning, fine, deduction of 3 points, fine and deduction of 6 points or revocation of the motor vehicle driving license, and fine plus revocation of the motor vehicle driving license. Difference Between Illegal Acts and Violations: The difference between the two lies in the fact that the former is based on national laws, which are mandatory and highly binding decrees, while the latter generally pertains to departmental or governmental regulations for maintaining order in specific public affairs and local regulations, which are usually administrative and not judicial in nature.
I've been driving for over a decade and have encountered speeding violations before. You definitely won't be able to check it on the same day. After the camera captures the photo, the data needs to be transmitted to the backend for processing. The police have to manually review each image to confirm if it's a genuine violation. This process takes at least a day or two. At best, the system might update by evening, but sometimes it may not show up until the next day. Last year when I was caught speeding, the incident happened in the morning but nothing showed up when I checked the 12123 app in the afternoon. It only appeared late at night. My advice is: don't take chances - obeying speed limits is the safest approach. Actually, maintaining good driving habits can save you all this trouble while also protecting yourself from accidents. Develop a routine of checking the app periodically, rather than obsessing over same-day results.
I think this is a very common issue. As someone who drives frequently, it's indeed difficult to check for speeding violations on the same day. After data collection, it needs to enter the system, and the review process involves multiple layers of checks to prevent misjudgments or missing key details, so real-time query is impossible. Generally, you can check on the app after 24 to 48 hours, or if you've bound the Alipay service, you'll receive a push notification. It's better to drive steadily—speeding not only results in fines and points deduction but also increases the risk of accidents. I recommend downloading the Traffic Management 12123 app for easy tracking of violation history to avoid accumulating tickets.
Once I was speeding on the highway and checked the 12123 app immediately that day, but found no results. It wasn't until the next day that I saw the notification. The system's processing of violation images is quite cumbersome, requiring data transmission and verification, so it can't be instant. However, if you have an ETC installed, speeding violations on the highway might be pushed via email faster. The most practical approach is not to obsess over it—just wait a day or two before checking the app again. Safe driving is what really matters; driving slower saves energy.
